Abstract | In 2000 the nonmetro poverty rate was 13.4 percent, the lowest level on record; was 2.8 percentage points higher than the metro rate; and was highest in the West and the South, which also had the largest rural-urban disparities. The nonmetro child poverty rate was 19 percent, compared to 13 percent for nonelderly adults, a persistent disparity for over a decade. (SV) |
